Once the cake is eaten, the balloons are popped and the guests have returned home,

the only lasting parts of the day are the emotions that you felt, and the photographs that captured it all.

Allow me the joy of capturing those memories that will bring the emotions of your most honest moments back for decades to come.

It's what I do best.

Verte Philosophy

People always ask, "Why Verte? How did you come up with that name?"

Verte is the feminine form of Vert meaning green in the French language. It is a constant reminder
to always think and shoot in a classic, timeless and stylish way, because the French culture ties those concepts together in my mind. While the green reference speaks to my
philosphy itself... organic, natural and as close to earth friendly as possible, not simply in the style of my work, but in the choices I make daily as a business owner.

Verte is founded on the core principle that being green matters.

Growing up in the photography industry, I know first hand how the silver halide prints of yesterday and the chemicals used to produce them have been used, and disposed of. I see how many of those
around me in the industry are living in a disposable world. I simply refuse to follow that concerning and traditional trend. I select everything from my equipment, to props and backgrounds, and
even my lab and print options are based on that one big question... How earth friendly is this?
